09/05/11 - I'm in a small cramped room with Leslie and M. Leslie is having me float in the air on my back and kick my legs repeatedly. It's like floating in water, only I'm about 5 feet in the air, levitating. The more I kick the more I stay afloat. She has me do this for a really long time and I start to get tired. Eventually I start to fall down and it becomes harder and harder to lift myself up to floating. Finally I just stop trying.
A little while later there's a guy sitting on the couch and he says he's gained a little bit of weight this winter. Unfortunately, this means he will be "canned" at his job. I feel bad for him and think about how ridiculous this seems.

Of the four Elements, air and fire are regarded as active and male; water
and earth as passive and female. In some elemental cosmogonies, fire is given
pride of place and considered the origin of all things, but the more general belief is
that air is the primary element. Compression or concentration of air creates heat
or fire, from which all forms of life are then derived. Air is essentially related to
three sets of ideas: the creative breath of life, and, hence, speech; the stormy
wind, connected in many mythologies with the idea of creation; and, finally,
space as a medium for movement and for the emergence of life-processes. Light,
flight, lightness, as well as scent and smell, are all related to the general symbolism
of air (3). Gaston Bachelard says that for one of its eminent worshippers,
Nietzsche, air was a kind of higher, subtler matter, the very stuff of human
freedom. And he adds that the distinguishing characteristic of aerial nature is that
it is based on the dynamics of dematerialization. Thoughts, feelings and memories
concerning heat and cold, dryness and humidity and, in general, all aspects of
climate and atmosphere, are also closely related to the concept of air. According to
Nietzsche, air should be cold and aggressive like the air of mountain tops. Bachelard
relates scent to memory, and by way of example points to Shelley’s characteristic
lingering over reminiscences of smell.
